Generally, in Bhutan, prayer flags are hoisted for happiness, long life, prosperity, luck and merit and to offer karmic merit to all sentient beings. After one dies, the benefits of offering prayer flags is believed to guide the soul of the dead away from the netherworld and to prevent it from being reborn in the three lower realms (Nge Song Sum, animals, pret and life in hell) of the six life cycles: Lha (god), Lha Min (demi-god), humans, animals, pret, and life in hell, according to a Buddhist scholar, Dasho Lam Sanga.

This is the artwork for a prayer sermon series. The focus was not so much on how to pray, but why we should pray. Once again, I didn't design this, but thought I would get the creative spark out to the masses.
We set up ten prayer stations in our prayer room for the duration of the series. Individuals could stop in and do as many of the stations as they wanted. We also produced a 16-page prayer guide that included sermon notes and daily devotions.
The Prayer Flag with the windhorse, called as the Rlungrta (pronounced as Lungta).
It is said that when the wind blows, the air carries the prayers printed on the flag and blesses the surround area.
The spinning of the prayer wheels is one of the most common doing in Bhutan. It is said that the mantra will be carried around and blessings will be given when you spin those wheels.
This prayer station allows you to write a prayer on a star or manger and then pin it to the manger on the wall.
Prayer Ribbons are hung throughout the lower foliage.
The wall is a tribute to Tom Hendrix's great-great-grandmother, a Yuchi who was born in what is now NW Alabama. She was removed int what became known as the Trail of Tears, but eventually walked back all the way from the Oklahoma territories. His wall was built one stone at a time, just as her journey was made one step at a time. And just like her journey, it winds, has high spots & low spots.
He has rocks from 127 States, countries & islands, including stones from the Arctic & Antarctic, the top of Everest, & the bottom of the ocean. I'm planning to send him some mahogany obsidian from Northeast California, maybe several others from my collection.
It has received recognition as a significant piece of environmental art. The wife of Alabama's Governor Bob Riley wanted to turn it into a tourist destination, but Mr Hendrix refused. That's not what the wall is about.

Prayer flags on a shrine in Tibet.
Prayer sticks at the Tsurugaoka Hachimangu shrine. Shrines are related to the indigenous Japanese religion of Shinto, the belief that kami spirits reside in all elements of nature including trees, rocks, rivers and mountains. Shrines are built on sacred grounds called jinja and are accessed through a torii gate.
A place to pray for the lost and each other, to share what’s in your heart. All Christians are welcome for their is power in prayer, now is the time to make a stand and do what God called us all to do and that is to Pray and tell others about Jesus Christ.
